The latest frontier of civil rights is to give human rights to rivers and other non-human things. The New Zealand Parliament relented to pressure from the Maori natives of the islands (who make up about 15% of the country’s population) and “recognis[ed] the Whanganui River, in North Island, as a living entity,” according to a BBC report.
